The Nash Ford Picture
Library contains not only a host of photographs
and modern illustrations, but also a
small collection of old prints, all with some connection to British History. Our images
have been used in books, journals, magazines, newspapers, television
programmes and on exhibition displays both in
the UK and abroad.

Below are examples (some cropped) of the kind of thing which we have available in
the print section of our Picture
Library. Our prices
are very reasonable, and use of library pictures is even free to clients
using selected other services, so please e-mail
us if you think we could help with your project. Those wishing to
reproduce our images on the web, must also e-mail
us to seek permission.

We have
a wide range of prints showing important historical figures,
particularly from the Medieval and Tudor periods. Most of these are
available in black & white, but we are able to colour them if
required. Here we see Edward Seymour, the Duke of Somerset, Lord
Protector and uncle to King Edward VI.

Monuments
& Brasses

We have
a good collection of engravings of effigial church monuments and
memorial brasses, including many Royal effigies. These are all black
& white. Here we see the monument to King Henry IV and his
queen, Joan of Navarre, in Canterbury Cathedral.

We have
a range of prints showing the historic buildings of London,
Westminster & Southwark, particularly
ones which no longer exist or have changed beyond all recognition.
All are black & white, but can be coloured if required, like
this image of
Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in Southwark.

We have
a wide range of prints showing important historic events,
particularly from the Medieval period. Some are available in black
& white and some in colour. Here we see the meeting between King
Edward IV and Edward, Prince of Wales, the son of King
Henry VI, after the Battle of Tewkesbury. The meeting did not go
well and the Prince was murdered by his rival's supporters.

We have
a wide range of prints showing legendary scenes from the tales of King
Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. Some are available in
black & white only, but most are colour. Here we see the dead
Elaine of Astolat arriving at King Arthur's Court.
